Nível 20 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

With players heads up on a board reading 7♣4♥8♠A♠ and about 90,000 already in the middle, Benjamin Spragg checked from the big blind and Metin Yalciner bet 45,000 from the cutoff. Spragg moved all in for 167,000, sending Yalciner deep into the tank.

After a few minutes Yalciner, who covered Spragg barely, made the call.

Benjamin Spragg: 7♣5♥
Metin Yalciner: A♥J♣

Spragg was in dire shape with only a gutshot straight draw against Yalciner's top pair. The 9♣ river was a brick and Spragg was eliminated two spots away from the money while Yalciner collected a full double up.

Players are now on the stone bubble with 81 remaining.

Nível 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

With two players seeing a board of 3♣10♣5♥9♥ and about 11,000 already in the middle, Vasiliy Shvarev checked from the big blind and Benjamin Spragg bet 8,000 from early position. Shvarev made the call.

On the 5♣ river Shvarev changed gear by leading out with an all-in bet worth just over 30,000 chips. Spragg thought for about 20 seconds before making the call.

Shvarev could only show 6♣4♥ for a missed straight draw, turned into a bluff on the river. Spragg tabled A♣A♥ for two pair, aces and fives to take down a healthy pot.
